PROFILE
Jack Brinkman
Worked on the AtlasOfLivingAustralia/ala-install repository to automate and streamline the deployment lifecycle for the BioCollect Progressive Web App. Developed an Ansible-driven CI/CD pipeline that downloads build artifacts, clears outdated files, and extracts new builds, refactoring processes to use curl for improved reliability. Enhanced artifact management by ensuring downloads only occur when builds change and by cleaning up obsolete archives while preserving active artifacts. Updated Nginx configuration to align serving paths for accurate routing. Leveraged YAML, shell scripting, and configuration management skills to reduce manual intervention, optimize build times, and improve the reproducibility and reliability of deployment workflows.

Apr 1, 2025April 2025 — AtlasOfLivingAustralia/ala-install Key features delivered: - PWA artifact management improvements: skip downloads when the build hasn't changed; preserve the currently active artifact and clean up old zip archives in the biocollect directory. Major bugs fixed: - Fixed issues around unnecessary PWA downloads and artifact cleanup that could remove the active artifact, ensuring stable artifact state across builds. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Reduced build times and network usage by skipping unchanged downloads; reclaimed disk storage through old artifact cleanup; improved reliability of artifact lifecycle and deployment workflows. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Shell scripting and automation, artifact lifecycle management, Git-based change tracing, and PWA deployment workflows.

Dec 1, 2024Month: 2024-12 — Focused on delivering a robust PWA deployment lifecycle for the BioCollect ecosystem in ala-install and aligning serving paths for predictable production behavior. Key outcomes include an automated PWA deployment pipeline, a refactor to use curl for reliability, and a rename of the Nginx PWA path to mobile-app for accurate routing. These changes reduce manual toil, improve deploy reproducibility, and support faster iteration.
